It's not a bad idea but I think it can't be easily done. At first, cryptocurrencies should be allowed in that country that will offer sucj subject in their universities. If it can't be use in such country, having knowledge about it will be a waste. Second thing is, if it is to be taught in schools, there should be someone that really knows the market, every cryptos pros, cons, and usage. Such information should be detailed well and should be reliable. Teachers have to be very familiar with it. 
Topic: Cryptocurrency Should be subsubject in Economy (Read 257 times)
They may know how to use cryptos, how to install crypto wallets and how to send/receive them but if they never know what is decentralization they will not realize the importance of having something called crypto.
Yes, we can learn anything and everything from internet still 90% of world people don't know how money works.

How can you say that? Where do you get numbers like that?
People learn what theyre interested in. You can't expect everyone to know something about economy and finances. Does a mechanic need that knowledge? He's got people to handle his finances for him. Do these people know how to fix cars? Probably not and that's why they work with money not with engines and such.
What is important is the ability to learn that the Internet gives us. If you want to learn how to use a wallet you can do it for free.
Don't expect someone to teach you about especially economy related because most of the students don't ever know how money works even if we use it on daily basis.Cryptocurrency could be a subject on schools but we need to know about decentralization before studying crypto currencies or people tend to see cryptos as just another form of digital payment.
You don't have to be taught about decentralization to understand Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
Young people these days have open minds thanks to early exposure to the Internet. They learn graphics, programming, how to use all electronic devices, all by themselves or from video tutorials. They'll understand Bitcoin, don't you worry about it.

Well said, there are some existing universities that use bitcoin to pay their tuition and there are some countries that are planning to add cryptocurrency as subject in the curriculum, which is so useful for the student, they are offering a subject which can be really used in the future especially with this evolving technology, as time goes by the technology evolves and by that for sure the bitcoin and other cryptocurrency will evolve too. The cryptocurrency will be more prominent in different countries because there are already some countries that are planning something fro cryptocurrency.
It is too early to put crypto as a sub-subject in the Economy. Crypto has no major role yet in the economy as a whole yet. Not everyone is aware of crypto and its use is still limited. This can only be possible if crypto is used in big companies if it is being used in our daily lives, or if it is already making a big impact in the economy as a whole.
If there is a subject has been undergo in the university of different countries definitely, it's a nice to be a part to enhance more knowledge as investors and probably that it is deserving and good suggestion to a modern technology to gain more benefits such as it may increase the impact of some traders desire to invest in crypto,thereby boosting their money and improve the quality of investment.
You can't force this subject now, it's a new technology, even with these 10 years, it's way new to put such subject on a university for example, obviously a good and well informed teacher will bring cryptos to class, but cryptos have to "live"more to slowly enters in all layers of society
Introduction of cryptocurrency in economics as a subject is a shock but I completely digress that it shouldn't be teached as a subject. One good reason for introducing it as a subject is that it helps in disseminating information about cryptocurrency, it helps in paving way for the technology to become a mainstream thing in economics, wouldn't it be better if there are more people learning about it and wouldn't you expect it that there might be people who will discover new things about it. And why on Earth do you people exclude other people in the crypto community, wouldn't it be better if there are more people engaged in this thing that could potential shape mankind's future.
Hmm, I don't think this idea is not so feasible simply because it is not as broad as the usual subjects. Crptocurrency was really interesting but it would be more suited as a topic only in Economics subject. And in college, I think it could be a major to Computer Engineering/Science students. Imagine, BS Computer Engineering major in Blockchain Technology, sounds good isn't it? 
Economy? Yeah it makes sense, but having it as "subsubjecr" is just a waste of time. There are few universoties that offering already blockchain courses, if they will gonna input and discuss economic related even in just one topic in a class, they will gonna understand it. What i mean is focusing about the blockchain subject rather than that of economy subject.

There was a thread about French high school that added bitcoin and blockchain in their curriculum, it does have a source link which its actually happening. Quite a rare school but if they have started doing it and kids learned about it then its best to start educating about it as early as possible. This will be an interesting subject for fathers who invested in crypto as they can teach their kids to learn what they are dong.

The teaching is schools will be good one just like different curriculum has been added. Scientific studies have be introduced because of growth in technology and I think digital training too school be added because of cryptocurrency usage.
In order for cryptocurrency to become a subject in school, it is necessary to legalize it and accept it as an alternative payment method in the state. Therefore, we will not see such a subject in the school curriculum in the near future. In this case, if this is not possible now, then let them not at least not interfere.
I think you will agree with me that this is going to be hard especially in some countries that have not legalized the use of the crypto and if at all they will be taught in economy, I believe they will focus on the negative impact rather than the positive parts. However, I have seen that many countries that are crypto friendly are not only studying it as a course but also offering scholarship to studying the underlying technology which is the block chain. Such are very common in school in Europe
if they dont legalized cryptos they shouldnt be teaching it too . only courses related to crypto are for country that fully accepts crypto .
there are now alot of them but only few so far are willing to take it as that is also a bit costy and seems to be complicated than other courses offered by schools . but once crypto has been really established globally , i think the study for it will only become cheaper and that can lead to more people being interested to take it .

This will not take a long time to happen. It will be a blockchain education in my opinion and there is already a project that is running an IEO on such. There is need for that as the cryptocurrency is steadily growing. With little time, this can happen if we embrace it.
There are already schools that teach about Bitcoin and blockchain that supports it.
It's just 6 years after the 2013 bubble that opened people's eyes and rised awareness. You might think that it's going to take long before it becomes a common subject taught at schools to children but it won't.
Computer games went through a boom in the 90s and about 10 years later we had computer game design as a common course on universities. Technology moves fast!

This will take a lot longer than you might expect because teachers are not seeing this when they studied so it is a brand new thing that teachers would have to first learn themselves and than they need to reach to a level where they can teach others as well. That is not that easy and you can't really find those teachers that easily.However, it could be a selective course where you can hire a "teacher" as in someone who is good at this in their field and has a job regarding crypto for example and they would come in and teach like 3 hours a week and leave, that way you can have a course without really having someone who is a teacher. Still, that will take some time to become more of a norm and it will be more like a thing in the future when crypto is more of a standard than right now.

I do think Cryptocurrencies does require a entirely different subject , as a matter of fact it is not just economics that is going around with respect to cryptocurrencies it is ,
A little bit of engineering + economics
A subject which is one of its own kind , therefore I do think it would be best if we have a separate subject , because even though governments all around the world criticize this at the end they are also following the suit and are all set on bringing out the digital dollar and all in approximately 3 years .
We already do have courses designed for a higher learning level but it should be taught in schools so , so that people can have an open mind regarding cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin entered into education subjects is a positive and good thing for students to get to know more about the cryptocurrency digit currency and the blockchain technology used by bitcoin.
You mean blockchain courses right? We already have a lot of universities that offers the blockchain courses that will help us into the future to build the ideal society that we want. It is not just about cryptocurrency, it is way more valuable than that, and that is paving the road of systems. Educating people about blockchain will not only boost the hunger of people to know blockchain but it will help a lot of branches to it like cryptocurrency especially bitcoin, ethereum and other heavy asset in the market right now.Jump to:
